High Style Penthouse #5PH2 With 180 Degree View Of The Gulf
About this condo rental
Nestled in Diamond Beach, this lovely condo for $429 per night is a great option for your next trip. A Caribbean seaside resort conveniently located in Galveston best describes Diamond Beach. Our 3 bedroom/2 bath penthouse is located on the fifth floor at Diamond Beach Resort and Spa, which is unequivocally the preeminent resort in Galveston. All of the condos at Diamond Beach have great views of the water but this is one of the few condos that has a view of the bay and the ocean. Starting at the front door, you have a wonderful view of the bay. As you step inside the penthouse, you will be greeted by floor-to-ceiling windows with spectacular views of the Gulf of Mexico. When you open the sliding glass doors, you will step onto your private oversized balcony with a 180 degree view of the bay and the gorgeous Gulf waters. The balcony is a great place to sip a cup of coffee in the morning before everyone wakes up or have a nice tropical drink in the evening with your family and friends. The master bedroom in the penthouse is one of the few units that has floor-to-ceiling windows with a spectacular view of the Gulf. The bedroom is an oasis for rest and relaxation, starting with its chandelier, deluxe king- size bed, and 55-inch flat screen TV (my husband’s decorating input) with Blu-ray player. The bathroom contains a wonderful rain-shower and an oversized tub. The bathroom also has his and her sinks. Free Wifi. The 2nd bedroom has a deluxe queen size bed, a custom headboard, a 55 inch-flat screen TV (again my husband’s decorating input) with Blu-ray player. The 3rd bedroom has a deluxe king size bed, a custom headboard, and a large flat screen TV with Blu-ray player. The 2nd bath is across from the two guest bedrooms with a walk-in shower. The penthouse is tiled with stone floor and a washer/dryer. The penthouse comes with a fully equipped kitchen and has granite counter tops. You’ll have 180 degree views of the ocean as you prepare waffles for breakfast or eat your favorite take-out foods from the large selection of restaurants within a short distance of Diamond Beach. The dining table seats 6 and the counter-stools sit 3, which is where the kids like to sit. The living room has fantastic views of the ocean, a queen-sleeper sofa, and a 60-inch flat screen smart TV (you’ll never guess who picked out the TV). The condo sleeps up to 8 people. In case you have a large gathering, this condo is next to my parents' penthouse Unit 5PH3 (www.vrbo.com/905494), which sleeps an additional 6 people. Diamond Beach boasts of many amenities including: Concierge: A concierge desk open 7 days a week from 7:00 am to 11:00 pm for your convenience with a staff knowledgeable regarding the island’s best attractions and restaurants. Pools: The lazy river and outdoor pool are open. Three pools consisting of a 750 ft. lazy river with a swim up bar and grill, a gigantic 300 ft. tiered cascading pool (which contains a kids’ pool), and Galveston’s only indoor heated pool for year-round enjoyment. The pools have plenty of lounge chairs or, if you want something more private, you can rent a cabana for the day. The kids (and adults too) will love the fantastic water slide that plunges into the lazy river. The slide is currently closed due to repairs and lifeguard unavailability. Pool Bar: The pool bar is open on Thursday, Friday and Saturdays during the summer. Spa: Ruthy's Spa is now open on the 4th floor. Book your appointment and relax with one of the many wonderful treatments. Gym: The Look Better in Your Swimsuit Center (aka The Exercise Room). This place may inspire those of us (like me) who would prefer to have a tooth extracted instead of going to the gym to actually get on a treadmill with its spectacular vistas of the Gulf. Game Room. Tabletop shuffleboard, foosball, pin ball machines, a billiards table, and a Wii Room for the kids and sometimes even parents get to play. Cinema Room: If you are in the mood to go to the movies, all you need to do is step into the private theater room at Diamond Beach while you enjoy a bag of popcorn. Kids Jungle Room: With its jungle murals, games, blocks, oversized bean bags and TV, this is the place to be for the hip toddler crowd. Business Center: If you must work, at least you’ll have great views of the indoor pool and beach. Beach Access: If you have time to go to the beach after doing all of the activities at Diamond Beach Resort & Spa, all you need to do is open the door on the property next to the lazy river and walk down to the beach. Diamond Beach is located just steps away from the beach. There’s no need to cross the road or jump in the car. Diamond Beach is near everything. Just a few minutes car drive from: (i) entertainment (Moody Gardens; Miniature Golf; Schlitterbahn Waterpark; The Stand; Railroad Museum); (ii) golf courses (Moody Gardens Golf Course and Galveston Country Club), (iii) recreational activities (Seaside Bicycle Rentals; fishing for speckled trout, redfish, founder, golden croaker); bird watching (3/4 of all North American species travel through Galveston during fall and spring migration), (iv) restaurants (everything from McDonald’s to Guido’s), and (v) lots of shopping. We are glad to share our home with you and know you will enjoy your stay here as you make great memories with your family and friends. We offer a full refund if cancellations are received 15 days or more before check-in. We recommend guests purchase trip insurance. Guests will be required to accept the terms and conditions of the short term rental agreement and sign the Diamond Beach Owners Association Waiver of Liability, Disclaimer and Indemnity Agreement prior to check-in.

The little ones had a great time playing on the beach and the pool. Galveston was great - Moody Gardens, the restaurants. We would stay there again

Overall it was a great stay. The only issue I had was when checking in. The concierge desk only had one fob available for the four of us which made it difficult when we didn't all four go to the same place at the same time on the property. I was told that they would bring me a second fob later in the day, but that never happened. I got the second fob when I picked up the wrist bands for day two.

Comfortable condo with nice view. The lazy river, giant lagoon pool, and access to the beach make the space enjoyable for the whole family.
The host, Maria, is responsive and friendly. Looking forward to staying again. Thank you, Maria!

The condo we stayed in was beautiful!! We really enjoyed our place. We wish there would have been more towels and maybe a few more throw blankets. The property is beautiful, but I will say the employee of Diamond Beach who was walking the property on the Friday we were there (6/9) was very rude and very aggressive. I understand ensuring that we have wrist bands and belong there, but he forcefully grabbed my daughter's wrist to see if she had one on. He should NOT be touching anyone for ANY reason. His tone was rude. His demeanor was just uncalled for. He made our stay at the pool area unenjoyable. Our son's car was damaged on the property due to a light fixture falling off the building and breaking the window glass on the passenger door. Hopefully the Property stays true to its word and pays for the fix. Communication with our Condo host was excellent.

We enjoyed our family vacation here immensely. So much to do and a lovely setting with inspring views!
The only downside, in my opinion, was the parking. I had 6 adults in my party with varied work schedules, so we could not carpool. (That's on me as I didn't read the details well enough.) Only allowing 2 cars per unit was a big hassle for us, especially with so many empty parking spaces on site that we weren't allowed to use.
I highly recommend this property, but only if you don't need more than 2 parking spaces for your party. If you can make 2 cars work for you, this is the place to stay!

The condo was fantastic. The building is amazing with indoor pool and a great gaming area and a movie theater type room. Our favorite part was the state of the art gym. It’s as nice as any I’ve worked out in. We had a great time

The condo was extremely nice, and very well appointed. Our stay was very comfortable and pleasant. However, we were disappointed at the extent to which the view of the beach is obstructed by the roof top of the floor beneath. A good view is 90% why we chose a beachfront property, so I don’t think we would stay there again for that reason.

We enjoyed our stay from the minute we walked in until the minute we walked out. Beautiful decor, comfortable beds and very spacious. Maria, our host was very quick to answer questions and gracious with the welcome gift.

Check in was a breeze. The property had a lot of really nice amenities. Condo staff was friendly. Condo it’s self was beautiful with breathtaking views. I thought it was going to be within walking distance to restaurants but it wasn’t. It wasn’t a big deal either because it was easy getting in and out of the complex

This condo is beautiful and perfect for a stay in Galveston. It had everything you could possibly need inside the unit and the furnishings on the balcony are the best. Diamond Beach is perfect and we love it there, we will definitely be back!

This was a very nice property. It had all the amenities we needed. We enjoyed watching a movie in the cinema room! Staff on site was very helpful. The condo was very clean and we enjoyed the welcome we had waiting for us - a nice bottle of wine! If we go back to Galveston I’d stay here again!

We really enjoyed our stay in 5PH2. This was our second time staying at the resort, and we loved this unit. It was very clean and decorated beautifully. Maria was an amazing host. There was an issue with the AC when we arrived and Maria worked very hard to get it fixed as soon as she could. She also refunded some money to us for the inconvenience. I would say our stay was near perfect. We did have a minor letdown upon arriving home after vacation and receiving a message from Maria that the cleaning crew had informed her that the stovetop was scratched. We didn't use the stovetop at all during our stay and I wondered if possibly the scratches happened during cleaning. Maria was definitely not accusatory, but I just felt so bad when she brought this up to me, knowing that we had done our very best to take care of 5PH2 like it was our own home. And there was no way we had scratched the stovetop. Again she was very nice about the situation and I understand why she asked me about it. It was just one of those unfortunate situations that kind of took the wind out of our sails following a near perfect vacation. But all in all, I highly recommend 5PH2 and Maria as a host, as well as, the resort itself!

This is a fabulous resort and great location away from all the traffic. Drive back to Strand etc. …..not that far. Lots of amenities. Condo was beautiful but we did run into a problem with the internet and being hacked within an hour of being in the condo by two of thee people staying. The third immediately closed out the local internet and was not hacked. Please be careful. When signing on it did indicate weak security so beware. Great view!

Six of us traveled here from Indiana for the 2022 national dance competition. There were three moms and three daughters and it was the perfect place. We couldn’t have found a better location and more beautiful condo. The views are gorgeous and the facility amenities are top-notch. The owner was very responsive and accommodating.

The condo was very nice and the condo owner was quick with communication but the security guard of the property was very rude. Apparently you are required to wear different colored wrist bands each day which I was not told, so on this particular day I had the wrong color wrist band on and the security guy asked me about it and told me I had to go get the correct color band and FOLLOWED me to the reception desk even after me telling him I was a guest, had my condo key on my arm and had already entered the pool gate with my key fob! I did not like feeling like I wasn’t supposed to be there when we paid good money, won’t be staying there again.
